Welcome to The Threshold Series: a short, intentional 3-part bridge between seasons of Wake Her Soul. These conversations were recorded in-between what God already began awakening in us… and what He was still unfolding next.A threshold is that holy in-between space: where old labels don’t fit anymore, but the new assignment hasn’t fully formed.Where you can feel the shift—yet you’re still waiting on clarity.Where God is stripping, refining, and re-establishing identity… before He releases assignment.In Threshold Episode 1, Shawna and Camille go straight to the foundation:Who you are before what you do.Because God always establishes identity before assignment.Together, they open up about motherhood, marriage, work, perfectionism, striving, and the pressure to “be something” in the world—and how God lovingly calls us back to the only identity that can’t be shaken: Daughter. Child. Beloved. Called. Free.If you’re in a season of unlearning, redefining, or being stripped back to truth…this episode is for you.What You’ll Hear in This EpisodeShawna and Camille unpack:* Why identity confusion is one of the enemy’s favorite traps* How striving, perfectionism, and “success” can become false identity* What it looks like when God re-orders your life (even when it’s inconvenient)* Why being “unqualified” has never stopped God from using someone* How testimony breaks the enemy’s grip—and why obedience often feels like resistance* Why community matters (even for introverts)* Practical steps to identify the labels you’ve been living under—and replace them with truthScriptures Referenced / Echoed(Referenced directly or alluded to in the conversation)* Revelation 12:11 — Overcoming by the blood of the Lamb and the word of testimony* Proverbs 18:21 — Life and death are in the power of the tongue* Proverbs 27:17 — Iron sharpens iron* John 15 (alluded) — Abiding in the Vine / not doing it in your own strength* Acts 9 / Pauline conversion (alluded) — Saul to Paul: God redeeming and using the past* Mark 9 (alluded) — Faith and deliverance / “this kind…” reference* Mark 10:15 (concept echoed) — Childlike faith* Ephesians 2:10 (echoed) — Masterpiece / God’s workmanshipKey Takeaways* The enemy targets identity first—because identity shapes everything you choose.* “Success” can be a counterfeit identity when it replaces surrender.* God often reorders your life in ways that feel inconvenient… because obedience is formation.* You don’t need perfection to be used by God. You need a yes.* Your testimony is warfare—when you speak what God has done, you break accusation.* The Kingdom doesn’t run on credentials; it runs on surrender.* Community isn’t optional for believers—faith is strengthened in fellowship.* The labels you wear (not enough, too late, disqualified, scattered, behind) must be tested against Scripture.* Childlike identity restores joy, trust, and peace—because children know they’re cared for.Chapters / Timestamps(May shift slightly once final audio is published.)* 00:00 — The Threshold Series: identity before assignment* 01:39 — Why identity is under attack* 02:25 — Shawna: leaving “workaholic” identity + embracing God’s reorder* 04:43 — Camille: striving, success, and the pressure to “be someone”* 10:23 — “The common denominator is the cross”* 13:11 — The power of testimony (Revelation 12:11)* 17:01 — Obedience when it’s inconvenient + facing resistance* 20:01 — Identity resources + surrender vs. self-powered striving* 28:31 — Who God says you are: child, loved, free, masterpiece* 36:23 — WAKE Practice: identify labels + test them against truth* 38:55 — Invitation: share, subscribe, step into Threshold Episode 2Reflection Questions* What labels have I been living under—without realizing it?* Where have I tied my worth to productivity, performance, or “success”?* What identity is God stripping off me right now?* What would it look like to live as a child of God—with trust instead of control?* What lie keeps showing up when I try to obey God?* Have I treated my past as disqualifying… instead of redeemed?* Who in my life sharpens my faith—and who reinforces my fear?* What is one identity truth from Scripture I need to speak over myself daily?WAKE Practice (From This Episode)Write it down:1) Labels I’ve worn:* “Not enough”* “Behind”* “Too scattered”* “Disqualified”* “I have to prove myself”* “I don’t have what it takes”(your list)2) Then ask:Does this line up with who God says I am?3) Replace it with truth:Choose one identity truth (child, beloved, forgiven, free, called) and speak it daily this week.Resources Mentioned* You Are More Than You’ve Been Told — Hosanna Wong* Living Fearless — Jamie WinshipNext StepsIf this episode stirred something in you:* Subscribe so you don’t miss Threshold Episode 2* Share this with a friend who’s in a “holy in-between” season* Leave a review (it helps awaken more women)* Comment what label God is breaking off you right nowYour engagement helps build the kind of community we’re praying for.With love in Christ,Camille & Shawna This is a public episode.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille continue their exploration of faith, doubt, and double-mindedness—diving deeper into what Scripture truly means when it warns that “a double-minded person is unstable in all their ways” (James 1:8).This conversation moves beyond surface belief and into the tension many believers quietly wrestle with:Holding faith in one hand… and doubt in the other.Together, Shawna and Camille unpack:• What double-mindedness actually looks like in daily life• How media consumption shapes belief more than we realize• Why faith is strengthened in community, not isolation• The role of spiritual gifts in building each other up• How Jesus modeled emotional honesty without losing trust• Why suppressing pain blocks deeper healingThrough vulnerable stories, biblical insight, and reflection on powerful passages—including the woman who touched Jesus’ garment—this episode reminds us:Faith is not pretending you don’t struggle.Faith is bringing your struggle honestly to God.If you’ve ever found yourself saying,“I believe… but help my unbelief,”this episode is for you.Scriptures DiscussedJames 1:6–8 — The instability of double-mindednessJames 4:8 — Draw near to God and purify your heartsMark 9:24 — “I believe; help my unbelief.”Mark 5:25–34 — The woman with the issue of bloodLuke 8:43–48 — “She told Him the whole truth.”Revelation 3:16 — The warning against lukewarm faithProverbs 27:17 — Iron sharpens ironJohn 11:35 — Jesus weptLuke 22:44 — Jesus in GethsemaneKey Takeaways* Double-mindedness often looks like wavering between trust and fear.* Media consumption subtly shapes spiritual conviction.* Community strengthens faith and replaces isolation.* Spiritual gifts are given to build the body, not elevate the individual.* Jesus modeled emotional honesty without abandoning obedience.* Suppressing pain does not equal spiritual maturity.* Healing requires telling “the whole truth.”* Faith grows when doubt is brought into the light.* God is not afraid of your emotions.* You can believe—and still ask for help in your unbelief.Chapters / Timestamps(Timestamps may shift slightly once final audio is published.)00:00 — What Does Double-Mindedness Really Mean?02:38 — Doubt vs. Faith: The Internal Tension04:00 — Media, Culture, and the Shaping of Belief05:12 — Why Community Builds Stronger Faith07:05 — The Chosen, Family, and Spiritual Kinship10:03 — Spiritual Gifts and the Gift of Faith13:38 — The Weight and Calling of Community17:23 — Mercy, Judgment, and Meeting People Where They Are21:24 — Emotional Honesty and the Model of Jesus25:39 — Suppressed Emotion and Spiritual Growth28:22 — The Woman Who Bled for 12 Years30:37 — “She Told Him the Whole Truth”33:38 — Miracles Then and Now34:50 — “Help My Unbelief”38:00 — Healing Through SurrenderClosing Reflection & InvitationReflection Questions* Where in my life am I holding both faith and doubt?* Is there media I’m consuming that subtly shapes my beliefs?* Who strengthens my faith—and who weakens it?* Have I truly “told Him the whole truth” about my pain?* Do I suppress emotions instead of bringing them to God?* Am I asking God to help my unbelief—or pretending it isn’t there?DownloadAs you listen, use the W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille continue their raw, real-time conversation about the “temperature” of our faith… especially when following Jesus makes the world label you as “too much,” “fanatical,” or even “in a cult.”Anchored in Romans 12:2, this episode confronts a hard but freeing truth: the world has a pattern—and it will shape you unless you intentionally resist it. Shawna and Camille unpack how culture disciples us into performance, status, comfort, and double-minded living… often without us realizing it.They also explore what happens when your obedience starts to cost you: criticism, misunderstanding, financial re-evaluation, identity stripping, and the battle of doubt that intensifies the moment you try to step into boldness.This is not a conversation from a platform of “we’ve arrived.”It’s two women walking out the messy middle—seeking God, resisting the enemy, and learning what it means to live unconformed in a world that pushes you to blend in.If you’ve ever wondered:* Why obedience feels messy and uncertain even when it’s right* How to know when the world’s pattern is shaping your decisions* Why criticism and discomfort often increase when you get serious about Jesus* How to discern conviction vs. fear vs. doubt* What it looks like to “seek first” in real life—finances, motherhood, identity, and calling…this episode will meet you right where you are.Key Takeaways* Romans 12:2 is not a suggestion; it’s a command: do not conform to the world’s pattern.* The world’s pattern often shapes us into performance, status, and comfort… even inside Christian spaces.* Persecution and criticism are not always a sign you’re wrong—Jesus told us it would come.* Cognitive dissonance can keep believers stuck: believing one thing while living another.* God often leads with one next step, not the full map. His Word is a “lamp to your feet.”* Obedience can require downsizing, surrender, and identity stripping—but it also brings freedom.* The enemy’s strategy is often subtle: seeds of doubt, especially when you’re stepping out in obedience.* Prayer isn’t performance… it’s surrender. Sometimes the boldest prayer is:“If it’s not for me, take it.”Chapters00:00 — Welcome Back + “Fanatics?” + The Temperature of Faith02:06 — Romans 12:2: The Command We Skip Over02:57 — John 15 + Why the World Hates True Faith05:19 — Reading John 15:18–20 + Sitting With Persecution07:16 — The Cost of Not Conforming (Work, Identity, Provision)09:56 — Shawna’s Downsizing Story + God Stripping Identity14:30 — Repentance for “Success” Not Rooted in the Kingdom19:39 — Motherhood, Homeschooling, and the World’s Script23:53 — The Burden of “More” + When Comfort Becomes a Question28:42 — Fasting, Obedience, and Taking the Next Step30:01 — Fear of Persecution + Showing Up Ill-Equipped32:40 — Psalm 119:105 + God’s Word as Lamp and Light38:27 — The Garden Seed: “Did God Really Say…?”39:03 — Doubt Attacks Assignment + Resisting the Enemy42:28 — Reflection Prompt: “Am I Missing Something?”44:59 — Prayer: Binding the Mind + Breaking Cognitive Dissonance51:25 — Closing: “Not our will, but Your will be done.”Scriptures Referenced* Romans 12:2 — Do not conform; be transformed by renewing your mind* John 15:18–20 — If the world hates you, remember it hated Jesus first* Psalm 119:105–112 (expanded reading) — God’s Word as lamp/light; obedience under pressure* James 1:8 — Double-mindedness leads to instability* Jeremiah 29:11 — God’s intent is not harm, but hope/future (referenced conceptually)* James 4:7 — Resist the devil and he will flee (referenced verbally)* Proverbs 22:6 (alluded) — Raising children in the way they should go (implied in motherhood discussion)DownloadAs you listen, we encourage you to use the W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille step into an honest and vulnerable conversation about what it really means to follow Christ …not just label ourselves Christian.They explore the tension between cultural Christianity and true surrender, asking the difficult but necessary questions: Are we playing Christian? Or are we actually following Jesus?This episode unpacks spiritual apathy, double-mindedness, lukewarm faith, and the gap between hearing the Word and living it. Shawna and Camille share from their own messy middle—years of seeking, questioning, dabbling in spiritual alternatives, and slowly awakening to what it means to put Christ first in real life, not just in theory.Together they discuss the difference between attending church and knowing Jesus, the power of daily conversation with God, and the invitation to move from passive belief into active relationship.This conversation is not about shame.It is about awakening.It is an invitation to examine the posture of your heart and ask:Are you seeking God …or just surrounding yourself with Christian language?Are you lukewarm …or on fire?Are you believing in Jesus …or following Him?This episode invites listeners into deeper honesty, deeper humility, and deeper hunger for God.Takeaways• Cultural Christianity is not the same as following Christ• Church attendance does not equal relationship with Jesus• Seeking God requires intentional daily pursuit• Prayer is conversation, not ritual• Lukewarm faith is spiritually dangerous• Double-mindedness creates instability• Following Jesus requires surrender, not labels• Worship should be normalized, not hidden• Spiritual apathy grows in comfort and complacency• God invites us into relationship, not performanceChapters00:00 — Opening Reflection: Why We’re Here02:15 — Playing Christian vs Following Christ05:10 — Seeking Truth in the Messy Middle07:18 — Going to Church vs Knowing Jesus09:30 — What It Means to Seek the Kingdom First12:11 — Matthew 6:33 and God as Provider14:36 — Prayer as Conversation, Not Formula16:27 — Relationship as Evidence of Faith19:08 — Spiritual Awakening and Seeing Jesus21:05 — Normalizing Worship in a Lukewarm Culture24:05 — Revelation 3:16 and the Danger of Lukewarm Faith27:16 — Double-Mindedness and Instability29:45 — Belief Requires Following30:49 — Living to Please God vs People32:23 — Prayer Invitation and Heart Examination33:52 — Gauging Your Spiritual Temperature35:14 — Closing Reflection(Timestamps follow the flow of the conversation and may be adjusted slightly once final audio is live.)Scriptures ReferencedMatthew 6:33 — Seek first the kingdom of GodRevelation 3:16 — Lukewarm faithJames 1:8 — Double-mindednessEphesians (filled with the fullness of God)Matthew 6:25–34 — Anxiety and God as provider“Open the eyes of my heart” theme (Ephesians 1:18 conceptually referenced)DownloadAs you listen, we encourage you to use the W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille continue their deep exploration of 2 Corinthians 10:5, turning their focus to what it truly means to demolish arguments and pretensions that set themselves up against the knowledge of God.This conversation moves beyond thoughts and into beliefs—revealing how spiritual compromise often enters not through obvious rebellion, but through subtle reasoning, cultural justifications, and well-meaning voices that gently pull us away from truth.Camille shares vulnerable personal stories about dismantling false beliefs within her own family, confronting spiritual mixtures, and navigating the emotional complexity of honoring loved ones while remaining obedient to Scripture. Together, Shawna and Camille unpack how pride, defensiveness, and even good intentions can keep us from fully surrendering to God’s Word.This episode is not about fear, argument, or religious superiority.It is about humility, discernment, and learning how to let God’s truth—not human reasoning—have the final authority in our lives.If you’ve ever wrestled with:• When to speak and when to stay silent• How to honor relationships without compromising conviction• Why certain beliefs feel harmless but contradict Scripture• Or how to dismantle false ideas with grace and truthThis conversation will meet you right where you are.Scriptures DiscussedThe following Scriptures were referenced and woven throughout this episode:* 2 Corinthians 10:5 — Demolishing arguments that oppose the knowledge of God* Deuteronomy 7:25–26 — Removing cursed objects and false idols from our homes* Iron Sharpens Iron (Proverbs 27:17) — The necessity of accountability and refinement* Luke 9:23 — Dying to self daily and taking up our cross* John 3:16 — The foundation of our identity and worth* 1 Corinthians 13 — Knowledge without love is noise* The Body as the Temple (1 Corinthians 6:19) — Our responsibility to steward what God inhabits* Jeremiah 18 (The Potter and the Clay) — God shaping us as His masterpieceKey Takeaways* Demolishing false beliefs requires humility, not argument* Not every belief that feels “good” aligns with Scripture* Spiritual compromise often enters through subtle reasoning* God’s Word must carry more authority than cultural norms* Pride can disguise itself through defensiveness and certainty* Discerning truth often begins in the prayer closet, not debate* Obedience may cost comfort but always protects intimacy with God* God is more concerned with souls than surface appearances* Transformation requires surrender, not just information* Identity rooted in Christ reshapes behavior from the inside outChapters / Timestamps(Timestamps follow the transcript flow and may be adjusted once final audio is live)00:00 — Returning to 2 Corinthians 10:5: The Call to Demolish False BeliefsOpening the conversation on dismantling arguments against God’s truth.01:22 — Subtle Arguments and Cultural ReasoningHow “harmless” ideas slowly pull us from obedience.02:05 — Discerning False Beliefs in RelationshipsCorrecting with humility, not superiority.03:00 — The Roman Statue Story: When God Reveals What We OverlookA powerful testimony on conviction, obedience, and spiritual mixture.05:30 — Deuteronomy 7:25–26 and the Reality of Spiritual InfluenceWhat Scripture says about idols, objects, and atmosphere.08:27 — Our Role Is Not to Change Minds, But Plant TruthLetting God work in hearts without becoming defensive.10:00 — Family, Freemasonry, and Breaking Generational StrongholdsNavigating painful truths with grace and courage.13:36 — Pride, Humility, and Cognitive BiasWhy letting go of deeply held beliefs requires surrender.16:00 — God Using the Humble, Regardless of Age or StatusA story of young leaders and spiritual authority.18:30 — Subtle Pride: Fault-Finding, Defensiveness, SuperficialityHow pride often hides in socially acceptable forms.21:10 — Defensiveness vs. Peace in ObedienceHow surrender removes the need to argue.24:46 — Accountability, Community, and Iron Sharpening IronWhy we need others to walk in awakening.28:00 — Dying to Self Daily and the Weight of the CrossReframing discipleship as surrender, not survival.30:38 — Speaking Identity Over ShameSeparating behavior from identity through Christ.32:28 — Who God Says You AreA powerful declaration of identity in Christ.35:00 — Releasing the Past and Becoming NewLetting God reshape what no longer aligns with truth.39:10 — Becoming God’s Masterpiece, Not Admiring False OnesClosing the full-circle revelation.43:11 — Closing Prayer and BlessingReflection Questions* Are there beliefs I’ve accepted that I’ve never tested against Scripture?* Where might I be reasoning instead of surrendering?* Is there anything in my life God may be asking me to release?* How do I respond when God convicts me—defensively or humbly?* What does it look like for God’s Word to be my highest authority?DownloadAs you listen, we encourage you to use the W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille dive deep into what it actually means to know God… not just know about Him.They explore how thoughts shape emotions, emotions shape actions, and how unnoticed thought patterns—our own and those absorbed from culture—can quietly pull us away from truth if they are left unchecked.Rooted in Scripture and lived experience, this conversation brings clarity to what it means to take every thought captive, renew the mind, and walk in discernment… especially in the middle of motherhood, relationships, and everyday pressures.This episode is both deeply practical and spiritually grounding, offering biblical wisdom, parenting examples, and honest confession about anger, words, discipline, and the power of language to either bring life or death.If you’ve ever felt stuck in mental loops, struggled with anger or frustration, or wondered how to actually apply Scripture to your thoughts and reactions, this conversation is for you.Key Takeaways* The knowledge of God is foundational to transformation—not optional* Thoughts influence feelings, feelings influence actions, and unchecked thoughts shape identity* We are not responsible for every first thought, but we are responsible for the second* Taking thoughts captive requires awareness, humility, and intentional obedience* A renewed mind leads to a disciplined tongue—and words shape atmospheres* Anger itself is not sin, but unresolved anger gives the enemy a foothold* Parenting reveals our inner world and exposes areas God wants to refine* Speaking identity over children forms belief systems that last a lifetime* Knowledge without love produces noise; truth with love produces transformation* God invites us into growth, not perfectionScripture Highlighted* 2 Corinthians 10:5 — Taking every thought captive to Christ* Romans 12:2 — Renewing the mind* 1 Peter 5:8 — Be alert and sober-minded* Ephesians 4:26–27 — Anger and footholds* Proverbs 18:21 — The power of the tongue* 1 Corinthians 13 — Knowledge without love is empty* Colossians 3:21 — Parenting without discouragementChapters / Timestamps(Times approximate; may be adjusted once final audio is live)00:00 — Introduction: Why Knowing God’s Word MattersCamille sets the foundation for understanding God, His Word, and transformation.01:10 — Thoughts, Truth, and DiscernmentShawna introduces the danger of subtle outside influences on our thinking.02:25 — Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:5Demolishing arguments that rise against the knowledge of God.03:22 — The “Second Thought” TheoryCamille explains how we’re responsible for reframing thoughts in obedience to Christ.04:49 — Humility, Pride, and Pleasing GodWhy honoring God starts with the posture of the heart.06:41 — Living on Autopilot vs Living AwakeRenewing the mind and breaking patterned thinking.08:39 — Desire, Free Will, and ObedienceGod invites transformation—He never forces it.10:02 — Parenting, Anger, and ResponsibilityReal-life examples of how thoughts turn into words and actions.12:45 — Scripture: Ephesians 4:26–27Unresolved anger and the foothold of the enemy.15:10 — The Power of Words in the HomeHow language shapes children’s identities and beliefs.18:31 — Stopping the SpiralBringing conflict into the light and reclaiming authority in Christ.20:17 — Grace, Forgiveness, and Turning BackGod’s mercy interrupts cycles instantly.22:34 — Identity vs BehaviorCorrecting actions without labeling identity.27:51 — Scripture: Colossians 3:21Discipline without discouragement.31:13 — Being in the Word Produces PatienceTransformation through intimacy with God.34:17 — Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13Why truth without love becomes noise.36:51 — Reflection + Prayer PromptInviting God to reshape thoughts, feelings, and actions.Download the WorksheetAs you listen, we encourage you to use the W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille step into a sobering and deeply practical conversation about spiritual apathy, subtle compromise, and what happens when God begins to awaken us to the things we’ve grown comfortable living with.This episode explores how spiritual sleep doesn’t always look like rebellion—it often looks like normal. Normal décor. Normal books. Normal habits. Normal beliefs we’ve never questioned.Camille shares a powerful, real-life testimony of how God began opening her eyes to objects, beliefs, and influences in her home that were not aligned with Scripture—revealing how apathy and lack of discernment can quietly give the enemy a foothold. Together, Shawna and Camille unpack the biblical reality that awakening often comes through conviction, and conviction always invites a response.This conversation is not about fear, superstition, or perfection.It is about obedience, discernment, and learning how to stay awake in a culture that constantly normalizes compromise.If you’ve ever wondered:* Why God seems to be stirring unrest in your spirit* Whether “harmless” things might be shaping your faith more than you realize* What personal conviction actually looks like in real life* How to honor God with your home, your habits, and your choicesThis episode is an invitation to pause, examine, and respond.Takeaways• Spiritual awakening often begins with conviction• Apathy can be just as dangerous as outright disobedience• What we allow into our homes can shape our spiritual atmosphere• Personal conviction requires personal obedience• Knowledge of truth brings responsibility, not neutrality• The enemy exploits spiritual sleep and lack of discernment• Obedience may offend others, but it honors God• God calls His people to remove what gives the enemy a foothold• Scripture—not culture—defines what is permissible• Awakening requires humility, surrender, and actionChapters00:00 — Welcome Back + Naming Spiritual Apathy02:09 — What It Means to Be Spiritually Awake03:00 — Cleansing the Home: When Conviction Begins04:20 — Mixing Beliefs vs. Following Christ Fully05:49 — 1 Peter 5:8 and the Danger of Spiritual Sleep08:11 — Standing Firm When Faith Offends Others10:40 — Hosea 4:6: Perishing for Lack of Knowledge13:30 — Justifying Disobedience Through Reasoning14:51 — Defining Apathy in the Life of a Believer17:30 — The Statue Story: When God Reveals Hidden Idolatry19:26 — Discovering a Pagan God in the Home21:42 — 1 Thessalonians 5:22: Avoiding the Appearance of Evil23:38 — Subtle Idolatry and What We Refuse to Release25:59 — Joshua 7 and Forbidden Objects in the Camp28:17 — Discerning Red Flags and Ignored Convictions30:45 — Individual Conviction and Romans 14:2334:53 — Choosing Obedience Over Certainty36:27 — When Doubt Is a Signal to Pause37:31 — Scanning the Home: A Practical Invitation38:39 — Allowing God to Speak Through What We Can See39:32 — Closing Reflection and Invitation(Timestamps follow the flow of the conversation and may be adjusted slightly once final audio is live.)DownloadAs you listen, we encourage you to use the W.A.K.E.

This mid-season BONUS episode of Wake Her Soul comes from an early, practice recording—captured before the podcast officially launched, but deeply reflective of the heart behind it.In this raw and unscripted conversation, Shawna and Camille share the origin story of Wake Her Soul: two women saying yes to obedience before feeling qualified, ready, or confident. What unfolds is an honest dialogue about spiritual awakening, motherhood, distraction, performance, fear, and the quiet ways women fall asleep to God’s voice in the middle of everyday life.This episode introduces the foundational rhythm that continues to shape the show:Wake → Wait → Walk → WorkYou’ll hear candid reflections on slowing down long enough to hear God, the danger of numbing and distraction, why stillness without obedience leads to stagnation, and how surrender—not perfection—is what God responds to.This conversation is especially for women who feel:* ill-equipped* distracted* spiritually numb* unsure if they’re “doing faith right”* called, but hesitant to step forwardThis is not a polished teaching.It’s a faithful beginning.And sometimes, beginnings are where God does His deepest work.Takeaways• Obedience often comes before clarity• God uses willing hearts, not polished ones• Stillness is necessary—but action must follow• Spiritual awakening requires awareness and response• Distraction is one of the enemy’s most effective tools• Many women are spiritually asleep while physically busy• God speaks in the quiet—but we must slow down to hear Him• Faith is meant to be walked out in real life, not just discussed• Awakening leads to responsibility, not passivity• God’s call is about surrender, not performanceChapters00:00 — Welcome to Wake Her Soul01:10 — Saying Yes to Obedience Before Feeling Ready02:05 — Why This Podcast Exists03:15 — Freedom in Christ for Women Who Feel Ill-Equipped04:10 — Moving Beyond Surface-Level Christianity05:00 — Wake → Wait → Walk → Work06:05 — Stillness vs. Spiritual Stagnation07:20 — Seasons of Sowing and Reaping08:35 — Motherhood, Anxiety, and the Need to Slow Down09:40 — Spiritual Sleep and Ignoring God’s Voice11:00 — Being Awake in a Counter-Cultural World12:45 — Using Gifts as an Act of Worship14:00 — Word Drop: Ephesians 5:1415:00 — Hitting Snooze on God’s Call16:30 — Reading the Word for Yourself18:00 — Relationship Over Religion19:40 — Created on Purpose, For a Purpose21:30 — Rising From Shame, Guilt, and Condemnation23:45 — God Shakes What We Refuse to Surrender25:15 — Pride, Blindness, and Subtle Distraction27:00 — Walking With Eyes Wide Open28:30 — Media, Programming, and Spiritual Awareness30:45 — Subtle Compromise and Everyday Distraction33:30 — Grace, Repentance, and God’s Forgiving Heart36:00 — Our Stories Point Back to God’s Redemption39:45 — Rising From the Dead Through Christ42:30 — Situations God Uses to Reveal the Heart45:15 — Staying Long Enough to Hear God47:30 — Closing Prayer and Invitation to Surrender(Timestamps follow the flow of the recording and may be adjusted slightly once final audio is live.)DownloadUse your W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille continue the call to spiritual awakening by confronting one of the most overlooked battlegrounds in a believer’s daily life: what we allow to shape our minds, identities, and habits.This conversation exposes how modern media, entertainment, music, and cultural messaging subtly influence our thoughts and behaviors—often without our awareness—and why Scripture calls us to take this seriously. Drawing from both biblical truth and research, Shawna and Camille unpack how constant exposure to worldly narratives can quietly dull discernment, fuel fear, and pull believers away from Christ-centered living.The episode also dives into cognitive dissonance, fear-based belief systems, identity formation, and the danger of appearing spiritually alive while slowly drifting internally. Through Scripture—especially Revelation 3 and the letter to the church in Sardis—listeners are invited to examine whether their faith is active and surrendered, or merely familiar and performative.This is not a conversation about perfection.It’s a conversation about awareness, repentance, discipline, and choosing to stay awake in a world designed to distract.If you’ve ever felt spiritually affected by what you consume…If you’ve wondered why peace feels harder to maintain…If you sense God calling you to greater clarity, discipline, and depth…This episode is a loving but urgent wake-up call.Takeaways• What we consume consistently shapes what we believe• Media, music, and entertainment influence us even when we think they don’t• The Bible confirms what research shows about subliminal influence• Awakening often begins with recognizing what we’ve normalized• Cognitive dissonance keeps people attached to false beliefs• Renewing the mind brings peace without emotional upheaval• Identity determines behavior more than rules ever will• Being “Christian” is not the same as living surrendered to Christ• Scripture warns against appearing alive while being spiritually asleep• Discipline strengthens faith the same way training strengthens the body• God calls believers to wake up, repent, and strengthen what remains• Focusing on Christ prevents condemnation and sin-fixationChapters00:00 — Opening: Awakening the Soul Daily to Christ01:15 — How the World Quietly Shapes Beliefs and Behaviors02:40 — Research on Media, Subliminal Messaging, and Influence04:30 — Music, Entertainment, and Guarding Our Children’s Hearts06:45 — Why “It Doesn’t Affect Me” Isn’t Biblically Accurate08:10 — Anxiety, Insomnia, and Cultural Noise09:30 — Cognitive Bias and Resistance to New Truth11:10 — Renewing the Mind Through Scripture12:40 — Fear of the Rapture and Transformation Through the Word14:50 — Identity: Who You Believe You Are Shapes How You Live16:40 — Faith as Relationship, Not a Label18:30 — Living Awake Instead of Just Looking Alive19:45 — Revelation 3 and the Warning to the Church of Sardis22:30 — “Wake Up and Strengthen What Remains”24:30 — Discipline, Consistency, and Spiritual Strength27:00 — Distraction, Busyness, and Losing Momentum29:20 — Awareness of Sin Without Condemnation31:30 — Seeking the Kingdom First34:00 — Parenting, Patience, and Formation Over Perfection36:30 — Transformation Without Even Noticing It39:40 — Reflection: What Is God Warning You About?41:40 — Closing Prayer and Invitation to Surrender(Timestamps follow the flow of the transcript and may be adjusted slightly once final audio is live.)DownloadUse your W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille continue anchoring the conversation in Ephesians 5:14, turning from the call to wake up toward the often harder command: “rise up from the dead.”This episode explores why many believers wake up spiritually—but remain stalled, seated, or hesitant to move forward. Not because they don’t love God, but because fear, shame, offense, and spiritual passivity quietly keep them from standing in faith.Together, Shawna and Camille unpack how constant spiritual consumption without obedience leads to stagnation, why prayer is not passive but authoritative, and how God designed faith to be strengthened through community rather than isolation.This conversation also confronts the subtle traps of offense, emotional reactivity, and self-protection—revealing how easily peace is surrendered when we stay asleep to what’s actually shaping our responses.If you’ve ever felt spiritually aware but hesitant to move…If you’ve been consuming truth without seeing transformation…If fear, offense, or isolation have kept you seated longer than you want to admit…This episode is an invitation to rise.Takeaways• Awakening is awareness, but rising requires obedience• You can be spiritually awake and still remain stuck• Truth that is consumed without application leads to stagnation• Fear often disguises itself as wisdom or waiting• Prayer is not passive—it is permission for heaven to move• God has given believers spiritual authority through Christ• Offense and emotional reactivity quietly steal peace• No one has power over you unless you give it• Community strengthens faith in ways isolation never can• Rising often happens before confidence arrivesChapters00:00 — Opening: Wake Up… Then Rise (Ephesians 5:14)00:55 — What “Dead” Means Spiritually (Sin, Shame, Guilt, Unforgiveness)02:10 — Why Many Believers Wake Up but Stay Stuck03:10 — The Danger of Spiritual Consumption Without Action04:05 — Letting Truth Sit With the Soul Instead of Moving On05:10 — Reorienting Daily Life Back to Christ06:10 — Prayer as Protection, Authority, and Daily Alignment07:05 — Fear, Hesitation, and Why Rising Feels Hard08:10 — Praying the Blood of Jesus and Standing on Christ’s Victory09:00 — “Fill the Gaps of My Faith With Your Grace”09:45 — Asking in Faith and Believing God Wants to Heal10:35 — Community, Shared Faith, and the Power of Carrying One Another11:35 — Redefining Church as the Body, Not a Building12:30 — Discernment: What to Share, When to Speak, and When to Stay Quiet13:30 — Obedience in Community and Walking Out Grace Together14:30 — Forgiveness, Offense, and Emotional Reactivity15:30 — The Trap of Offense and How the Enemy Uses It16:30 — Triggers, Irritation, and Giving Power Away17:20 — Everyday Examples: Road Rage, Hurry, and Loss of Peace18:30 — Awareness, Planning, and Choosing Peace Over Agitation19:20 — Speaking Up in Love vs. Silent Resentment20:30 — Bringing What Bothers You to God Instead of Complaining21:45 — Awakening to Patterns That Keep You Stuck22:45 — Asking God to Search the Heart (Psalm 139)24:00 — Becoming More Intentional in Prayer25:15 — Closing Reflection: Sitting With God and Letting Him Reveal What Needs HealingDownloadUse your W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille slow the pace and speak honestly from the middle of real life—tired bodies, busy homes, motherhood, responsibility, and obedience.What begins as a conversation about physical exhaustion opens into a deeper exploration of what it truly means to stay spiritually awake, even when the body feels worn down.Together, they unpack the difference between body, soul, and spirit, why striving often disguises itself as “excellence,” and how renewing the mind—not self-effort—is the pathway to freedom.This episode weaves biblical teaching, real-time reflection, and Spirit-led clarity around surrender, obedience, false images of Jesus, and the urgency of eternity.If you’ve ever wondered:* Am I spiritually tired—or just physically exhausted?* Why does obedience feel heavy when it’s supposed to bring freedom?* How do I stop striving and actually rest in God?This conversation will meet you right where you are.Takeaways• Physical exhaustion does not automatically mean spiritual disconnection• The soul is made up of the mind, emotions, and will—and requires daily surrender• Being born again renews the spirit instantly, but the soul is sanctified over time• Striving often masquerades as excellence when obedience is the true goal• Renewing the mind is central to spiritual awakening• Many false versions of Jesus are shaped by culture rather than Scripture• Jesus did not come to make people comfortable—He came to awaken souls• Obedience and surrender are the true pathways to freedom• God’s yoke is light because He carries what we were never meant to hold alone• Fear of death and the rapture fades as trust in eternity growsChapters00:00 — Acknowledging Physical Weariness02:10 — Motherhood, Responsibility, and Real-Life Exhaustion04:30 — Waking Up Spiritually While the Body Is Tired06:10 — Excellence vs Striving in the Christian Walk08:05 — Scripture: Psalm 139:23–24 (“Search Me, O God”)10:15 — Fasting, Obedience, and Spiritual Clarity12:45 — Body, Soul, and Spirit: Understanding the Difference16:00 — Renewing the Mind and Taking Thoughts Captive18:30 — False Images of Jesus vs the Biblical Jesus21:00 — Cultural Comfort vs Kingdom Truth23:40 — The Urgency of Eternity and the End Times26:10 — God’s Yoke: Surrender as Freedom28:30 — Fear, Death, and Trusting Eternal Security30:20 — Closing Reflections + Invitation to Surrender(Timestamps follow the transcript flow and may adjust slightly once final audio is live.)DownloadUse your W.A.K.E.

In this episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille pick up right where Episode 2 left off…continuing the conversation about what it truly looks like to wake up spiritually in the middle of real life.They dive into how distraction, secrecy, shame, and performance quietly distance us from God—not through rebellion, but through silence, striving, and self-protection.This episode carries raw testimony, biblical truth, and gentle but firm invitations from the Holy Spirit to come out of hiding and into healing.You’ll hear honest stories of fasting, confession, marriage, shame, healing in community, and the freedom that comes when light replaces secrecy.If you’ve ever felt stuck carrying something alone…If you’ve ever wondered why you feel distant from God despite loving Him…If you’ve ever feared that your past disqualifies you—this conversation is for you.Takeaways• Spiritual distraction is one of the enemy’s most effective tools• Being “asleep at the wheel” often looks like busyness, noise, and numbing• Awakening requires awareness, not performance• Healing accelerates when shame is brought into the light• God uses confession and community as pathways to freedom• Vulnerability opens the door for others to heal• Our past does not define us—but it can become our testimony• Secrecy keeps wounds alive; surrender allows God to heal them• Fasting is a biblical, powerful, and often forgotten act of worship• God does not shame us into obedience—He invites us into freedomChapters00:00 — Opening Prayer + Invitation to Prepare Your Heart02:15 — “Asleep at the Wheel”: Distraction in Everyday Life04:13 — Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:6 and Staying Spiritually Awake06:16 — Entertainment, Numbing, and the Subtle Pull of the Flesh07:16 — Distraction as a Weapon of the Enemy08:32 — Healing Happens in Safe, Honest Community10:14 — Vulnerability Creates Permission for Others to Heal11:41 — Scripture: James 5:16 and the Power of Confession12:24 — Shawna’s Testimony: Fasting, Business Debt, and Truth-Telling15:08 — Freedom on the Other Side of Confession18:29 — Marriage, Grace, and Reflecting God’s Love20:15 — What Is God Asking You to Release?21:49 — Fasting: A Forgotten Act of Worship24:15 — Pausing to Listen + Closing Invitation(Timestamps follow the flow of the transcript and may be adjusted slightly once final audio is live.)DownloadUse your W.A.K.E.

DescriptionIn this second unedited, real-life episode of Wake Her Soul, Shawna and Camille continue the conversation right where Episode 1 left off…diving deeper into what it really means to stay spiritually awake in the middle of everyday life.They open up about drifting, distraction, motherhood, numbing habits, inconsistent rhythms, old religious conditioning, and the internal tug-of-war every believer faces between flesh and Spirit.This episode is an honest look at the messy, beautiful reality of walking with Jesus—not perfectly, but faithfully.If you’ve ever felt spiritually inconsistent, easily distracted, overwhelmed by life, or frustrated that you “should be further along by now,” this conversation will set your heart at ease and point you back to the One who never stops calling you awake.Takeaways* Spiritual numbness is subtle and creeps in through busyness, distraction, and noise.* You don’t outgrow the battle between flesh and Spirit—you learn to return faster.* Consistency with God isn’t about perfection; it’s about posture.* Every believer wrestles with “I should be doing better.” The enemy weaponizes that with shame.* Conviction is an invitation; condemnation is an attack.* Awakening happens in everyday moments—in the dishes, the laundry, the car, the early mornings, the interruptions.* God doesn’t require perfection to move in your life; He requires surrender.* You can’t earn closeness with God, but you can choose attentiveness to Him.* The disciples had Jesus physically with them and still struggled…your mess does not disqualify you.* Staying spiritually awake is not a one-time moment but a lifestyle of returning.* God will shake you or break you—whatever it takes to wake you—because He loves you too much to leave you asleep.Chapters00:00 — Intro + Setting the Tone00:37 — “Good Enough” Christianity + Camille’s Salvation Story02:41 — Believing in Christ vs. Performing for Christ05:53 — Wandering, Misalignment, and Returning to Truth08:32 — New Age, Religion, and Losing Sight of God10:14 — Scripture: Ephesians 5:14 and the Heart of Wake Her Soul11:33 — Spiritual Numbness: Falling Behind, Falling Asleep13:27 — Real-Life Examples: Dance Moms, Distraction, and Numbing15:37 — The Mundane Moments Where God Speaks18:11 — Discernment, Faith, Doubt, and Daily Decisions20:58 — The Messy Middle: Consistency, Conviction, and Growth21:49 — The Disciples Struggled Too (And Why That’s Liberating)23:30 — When We Let the Enemy Win Small Battles25:47 — Waking Up, Breaking Points + God’s Loving Correction27:00 — A Moment of Prayer + Reflection Invitation(These timestamps follow the themes and flow of the transcript.

Dear beloved,This letter is for the one who has persevered.You’ve walked through refining fires.You’ve stayed when it was hard.You’ve chosen truth over trends and worship over weariness.And now, heaven whispers over you:Hold fast.“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have,so that no one will take your crown.” —Revelation 3:11The Crown Is ChristThere’s a crown waiting…not of gold,but of glory.Not a trophy for performance,but a testimony of perseverance.“Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness,which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day,and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for His appearing.” —2 Timothy 4:8This is not a finish line of exhaustion;it’s the embrace of completion.Every tear sown in obedience,every unseen act of faith,every quiet surrender…they all become jewels in the crown of His joy.The Victor’s RewardFaithfulness doesn’t earn salvation…it reveals it.The crown isn’t your achievement;it’s your inheritance.It’s the proof that Jesus kept His promiseto finish what He began in you.You may not have done it perfectly,but you did it faithfully.And soon,you’ll lay your crown at His feet…because even your endurance was His grace in motion.🔔 YOUR WAKE-UP CALL TODAYPray this as your benediction:“Lord, thank You for sustaining me.I hold fast to Your truth and Your name.Keep me steady until the end.Let my life bring You honor now and forever.When I see You face to face,may I cast my crown at Your feet and worship without end.In Jesus’ name, amen.”Then pause and imagine that moment…the race complete,the striving over,the King before you.Let hope fill you.This is what you were running for.This is not the end of your story…it’s the beginning of eternity’s song.And the melody is mercy,the refrain is grace,and the crown is Christ Himself.With love in Christ,Camille & Shawna“Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.” —Revelation 2:10Spread the awakening: This letter is public—send it to a sister who’s ready to wake up.

Dear beloved,This letter is for the one who has been walking with God for a long time,and wonders if it’s still making a difference.You’ve served, you’ve sown, you’ve stayed…even when it felt unseen.You’ve obeyed when it wasn’t easy,loved when it wasn’t returned,and prayed when answers seemed silent.And heaven has seen every moment of it.Faithfulness Is Finishing“I have fought the good fight,I have finished the race,I have kept the faith.” —2 Timothy 4:7The world celebrates quick results.But the Kingdom crowns endurance.Faithfulness doesn’t always look fruitful in the moment…but it’s what fills eternity with glory.You’ve been running a holy race,and every unseen “yes” is a seed God intends to harvest.“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus,the author and perfecter of our faith.” —Hebrews 12:2You are not running alone.The One who began the good work in youwill finish it through you.The Beauty of Steadfast LoveFaithfulness is not just about showing up.It’s about staying true.You’ve learned that feelings fluctuate,but faith does not.You’ve learned that storms reveal roots,and obedience builds endurance.And even when you wavered,His faithfulness never did.Beloved, every season of staying has prepared you for the season of shining.Your consistency is worship.Your perseverance is prophecy…declaring to the world that God is worth it.🔔 YOUR WAKE-UP CALL TODAYPray this softly:“Lord, thank You for being faithful when I was faint.Strengthen me to finish the race You’ve set before me.Keep my eyes fixed on You — not on applause, not on outcome.I choose endurance over ease, devotion over distraction.May my life prove Your faithfulness to the end.In Jesus’ name, amen.”Ask the Holy Spirit:“Where am I tempted to quit…and what does faithfulness look like instead?”Then take one action of steadfast obedience today…even a quiet one.The finish line isn’t for the fastest,it’s for the ones who didn’t stop running.And when you cross it,you won’t look back at what you built…you’ll look up at the One who was with you the whole way.With love in Christ,Shawna & Camille“Well done, good and faithful servant.” —Matthew 25:23Thanks for reading Wake Her Soul!

Dear beloved,This letter is for the one who believes she’s disqualified.You love Jesus, deeply.But you still carry the ache of what you didn’t do,what you did wrong,or what you let fall apart.You’ve replayed the moment you denied Him with silence.You’ve carried shame for the call you delayed.But here’s the good news:Jesus never revoked your calling…He’s simply waiting to reinstate it.The God Who RecommissionsHere is an excerpt from John 21:15–17, “When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter,‘Simon, son of John, do you love Me?’…‘Feed My sheep.’”Peter’s story didn’t end in failure.It began again in forgiveness.On the same shore where he’d once gone back to fishing,Jesus found him…not to shame him, but to send him.That’s the pattern of grace:failure → forgiveness → fresh fire.Your mistakes don’t void your mission.They refine your ministry.If anything, they qualify you to speak of His mercy with more compassion,because you’ve lived it firsthand.Sent with His Authority“Go and make disciples of all nations…And surely I am with you always.” —Matthew 28:19–20Your commission is not optional…it’s eternal.You weren’t saved to stay safe.You were saved to be sent.God isn’t asking for perfection.He’s asking for participation.You don’t have to be the most gifted,just the most surrendered.The Great Commission isn’t a pressure…it’s a privilege.Jesus chooses to partner with youto bring heaven to earth.🔔 YOUR WAKE-UP CALL TODAYPray this aloud:“Lord, thank You for forgiving my failures.I receive Your mercy and recommissioning.Send me where You will.Use my scars as stories of Your grace.Give me boldness to feed Your sheep,serve Your people, and carry Your name.In Jesus’ name, amen.”Ask the Holy Spirit:“Where are You sending me next?”It may not be a faraway mission field…it might be your kitchen table, your workplace, or your social feed.Your obedience is your ministry.Grace doesn’t end with forgiveness.It graduates into assignment.And those who have been forgiven muchlove—and lead—much.With love in Christ,Camille & Shawna“As the Father has sent Me, I am sending you.” —John 20:21Thank you for reading Wake Her Soul!

Dear beloved,This letter is for the one who has forgotten she shines.You’ve walked through the fire.You’ve been refined, restored, and reconciled.But the enemy still tries to whisper,“You’re too dim to make a difference.”That lie ends today.You were never called to create light …you were called to carry it.Rise and Reflect“Arise, shine, for your light has come,and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.” —Isaiah 60:1The world is darker than ever…but that only means your light is needed more than ever.You are not a flicker;you are a flame kindled by heaven.You don’t need to perform for the spotlight.The Spirit Himself is your illumination.Your radiance doesn’t come from makeup, momentum, or mood.It comes from abiding in the glory of God.“You are the light of the world.A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.” —Matthew 5:14You were not saved to stay invisible.You were redeemed to reflect Him.The Glow of GraceLight doesn’t strive…it simply shines.Your radiance isn’t about perfection; it’s about presence.When you’ve been with Jesus, it shows.People may not know what’s different…but they’ll feel it.Peace when others panic.Joy when others crumble.Hope when others hide.That’s the power of a life lit by His Spirit.You don’t have to push your light forward.You just have to stop covering it.🔔 YOUR WAKE-UP CALL TODAYPray this aloud:“Lord, thank You for placing Your light within me.Forgive me for hiding when You’ve called me to shine.Remove fear, shame, and self-doubt.Let Your glory rise upon my life so others may see You in me.Make me radiant with Your presence.In Jesus’ name, amen.”Ask the Holy Spirit:“Where have I been hiding my light?”Listen…then take one small action today that reveals Jesus through you.A word. A prayer. A post. A gesture of love.Light multiplies when shared.You don’t have to chase the light.You just have to stay where the Light is.And when you do,the darkness doesn’t stand a chance.With love in Christ,Shawna & Camille“Those who look to Him are radiant;their faces are never covered with shame.” —Psalm 34:5 This is a public episode.

Dear beloved,This letter is for the one who has fought hard for truthbut forgotten that the goal of truth is restoration.You’ve stood firm.You’ve drawn boundaries.You’ve cut ties that were toxic.But now your heart feels heavy,and you wonder…is it possible to walk in both conviction and compassion?Yes, beloved.Because the same God who calls you to righteousnesscalls you to reconciliation.Reconciled, Not Just Right“All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christand gave us the ministry of reconciliation.” —2 Corinthians 5:18Reconciliation doesn’t mean re-entering unhealthy patterns.It means releasing offense and realigning your heart with heaven.Before God ever sent you to reconcile with others,He reconciled you to Himself.He didn’t wait for you to deserve it.He initiated it.And now He calls you to reflect the same mercyyou’ve received.“Through Him God was pleased to reconcile to Himself all things,whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of His cross.” —Colossians 1:20Peace doesn’t come from avoidance.It comes from the Cross.The Cost of True PeaceSometimes reconciliation means forgiving without rebuilding.Other times it means pursuing understanding where pride once ruled.Either way, it requires humility…because reconciliation is never about winning the argument.It’s about revealing the nature of Christ.The enemy loves division because it distorts God’s image in His people.But when you choose peace over payback,heaven wins ground in your heart.You are never more like Jesusthan when you forgive what felt unforgivable.🔔 YOUR WAKE-UP CALL TODAYPray this with open hands:“Lord, thank You for reconciling me to Yourself through the Cross.Heal every place where bitterness still hides.Give me the courage to forgive, the wisdom to discern,and the grace to reflect Your heart.Use me as an instrument of peace in a divided world.In Jesus’ name, amen.”Ask the Holy Spirit:“Who do I need to release—or reach out to—in order to walk free?”Listen for His whisper.Obedience may look like a prayer, a letter, or a silent surrender.Reconciliation doesn’t erase truth…it proves truth’s power to heal.And when hearts are reconciled to God,peace begins to ripple through the world.With love in Christ,Camille & Shawna“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” —Matthew 5:9Thanks for reading Wake Her Soul!
